Hip Urban Wedding

As a designer, it’s always fun working with vivid colors, lush textures, and new venues! Megan and Joe’s hip urban wedding at Mess Hall in Washington, DC did not disappoint. If you’re looking for a raw, industrial space, Mess Hall is definitely one to consider. Nestled in one of DC’s newest hip neighborhoods, Mess Hall conveys an effortlessly cool vibe. From the urban loading dock for the ceremony to the graffiti and minimal warehouse decor, the venue is as unique as they come.

Moody Fall Floral Palette

Megan’s and her bridesmaids’ bouquets, it was all about the sophisticated palette of reds and burgundies with softer accent shades, as well as a diverse mix of beautiful blooms. Megan’s bridal bouquet included red Piano garden roses, lavender roses, peach stock and white rice flower, among which we tucked silver dollar eucalyptus, burgundy agionis foliage, and wispy white ostrich feathers. Her attendants carried complementary bouquets that featured Black Magic roses.

Industrial Ceremony Vibes

A dramatic copper arch served as the focal point for Megan and Joe’s hip urban wedding ceremony. The industrial feeling structure was accented with an asymmetrical design of silver dollar eucalyptus further finished with touches of ivory majolica spray roses.

Rustic Reception

For the reception, guests were seated at cozy long tables set with rustic, elegant centerpieces that perfectly suited Megan’s and Joe’s style. Designed in small, depression glass vases, each container held a mix of burgundy dahlia, burgundy ranunculus, and red zinnia, accented with silver dollar eucalyptus. We think the effect was gorgeous!

Megan and Joe’s hip urban wedding was a joy to help design, and we can’t thank them enough for including us in the festivities! Congratulations to the happy couple!

Oh how we love a room shot…

Don’t get us wrong! Give us all the delicious little flower close-ups. We want to see every ruffly petal and perfect place setting.

But then BACK UP!

Because this is the moment we’ve been thinking about all along. How do those centerpieces fill the room? Where does your eye go first? Do the tall pieces actually feel tall beneath a 20-foot ceiling? 

Does the whole thing have rhythm?

Seeing all of those individual pieces finally come together into one beautiful room never, ever gets old.

Twenty-plus years in and we still get a little giddy about it.
